Penguin has released on Amazon Prime and the film marks the Eashvar Karthic's directorial debut. The Keerthy Suresh starrer movie also will see Eashvar's dog Maddy in a crucial role.
The actress while speaking to DNA spoke about the canine co-star and mentioned she has earlier shot films with dogs, but wasn't sure if her director's home trained pet will be able to pull off the part. "I really didn’t know if Maddy would be able to pull this off. I have a dog and I know when we train at home, it’s completely different."
Keerthy went on to further reveal that no well-trained dog was available for the part and therefore no other choice was left to them, "Later he told me that he actually couldn’t find a well-trained black lab. So, he wanted Maddy to do the part. But I was so surprised that you know, he was a major character in the film. He just comes in, he does whatever Eashvar says. I am like, my God…. I have so many people challenging me."
Keerthy who is a dog-owner herself is well aware of their temperaments and how much fun they have when they are with kids. She furthere stated, "So, it was so much fun and Maddy is a very very sweet dog and it was so much fun to be with him. And you know how this combination is when you have a kid and a dog. I have a dog myself and when he plays with kids it’s so much fun and it was the same there as well. He is such an obedient boy. I really want to work with Maddy again actually."
Penguin is produced by Karthik Subbaraj under the banner Stone Bench Films and is also produced by Kaarthekeyen Santhanam, Sudhan Sundaram, and Jayaram under Passion Studios.
